Avghi Constantinides D.Hom RS Hom HMC CCH MA Homeopath
When you come to a homeopath for a consultation, we treat you, the whole person, rather than just your disease. Just as exercise keeps your body strong and makes you feel good, homeopathy enhances your natural defenses and vital force to help restore your body to harmony and balance. Today it is accepted in many countries as a recognized medical treatment.
Homeopathy is a natural system of healing that works by using a small dose of a substance to help stimulate the body’s natural healing forces. Homeopathy is an effective & safe treatment that is gentle yet extremely effective when used properly.

Xochiltl Ramos, MFT Marriage & Family therapist
I specialize in creating a collaborative and resilient healing space alongside patients. My approach is rooted in psychodynamic principles, focusing on relational dynamics and depth-oriented psychology tailored to your unique needs and goals.
Our work together will cultivate a space where you can examine and explore your inner life. I partner with you to foster self-discovery and resilience, meeting you exactly where you are. I believe there is no wrong way to engage in therapy—every path to healing is valid, and my role is to support you in exploring what feels most alive.
In my work with couples, I help partners identify and examine relational patterns that may no longer serve them. Together, we uncover and articulate individual and shared needs, fostering a deeper understanding and support within the partnership.
